Russia is losing hundreds of soldiers a day without making any significant gains in Ukraine. Russia must recognize that it’s time for peace and come to the negotiating table.

Great discussion at Munich Security Conference Kick off. At the upcoming NATO Defense Ministerial, and ultimately at the #NATOSummit in Ankara this summer, we’ll receive our first full report on Allied defense spending. So far, what we’re seeing is real movement. But this isn’t just about percentages: Allied focus needs to be on readiness, capabilities, and lethality. That’s the standard—and we push our Allies on it every single day.

A win-win-win: NATO Allies are buying U.S. weapons for Ukraine. This is boosting our defense industry, creating American jobs, and strengthening European security…at no cost to U.S. taxpayers. I saw this firsthand at NATO’s Security Assistance and Training Center in Wiesbaden.

I’ve spoken with NATO Allies still buying Russian oil and gas. We’re helping them transition away from funding Russia’s war machine, without disrupting their economies. Poland shows how this can be done.

#NATO’s credibility is on the line. With the #NATOSummit starting tomorrow, I spoke with nearly 200 journalists from dozens of countries to share what’s at stake: a historic commitment for every Ally to invest at least 5% of GDP in defense. Thanks to President Donald J. Trump’ bold leadership, real burden-sharing is finally within reach. #PeaceThroughStrength

As the first Senate-confirmed Ambassador of this administration, I am honored to convey a clear message on behalf of President Trump: The United States is firmly committed to #NATO, but our 31 Allies must also fulfill their commitments. After just about a week in office, I am optimistic that we are moving in the right direction. Haley Bull Scripps News

President Trump's sustained pressure is delivering results. NATO is evolving into an Alliance where the burden is shared more fairly and Europe assumes greater responsibility for its own defense. Allies like Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Greece, and Türkiye are leading the way. Those lagging behind need to catch up.

The Trump effect on #NATO is real and measurable. Allies are spending more - supporting U.S. manufacturing and jobs. Stronger Allies mean a stronger NATO, all thanks to President Donald J. Trump.

Since last year’s #NATOSummit alone, Allies have spent more than $139B on defense—over half with U.S. industry, which boosts American jobs. This is President Trump’s America First foreign policy in action, delivering real dividends to the American people. 🇺🇸

Greenland is strategically located, critical to U.S. national security and the security of our NATO Allies. The Arctic region is vital to deterring our adversaries and to monitoring the evolving threat picture.

The #NATOSummit starts on July 7 in Ankara. Next month’s pivotal meeting will serve as a progress report on the 5% defense commitment. Under POTUS's leadership, Allies are moving beyond commitments and returning NATO to its warfighting roots.

NATO exists to defend, not provoke. Peace through strength means a strong America, capable Allies, and an Alliance ready to deter threats before conflict begins.

At next week's #NATOSummit in Ankara, Allies will receive their first report card since committing to 5%. The U.S. leads the way with a $1.5 trillion budget next year, well over 5%. Under POTUS, we expect Allies to step up, follow our lead, and finally take over its own conventional defense.

Nearly four years of war in Ukraine saw no real dialogue between the sides until President Trump stepped in as a peacemaker. Peace is a process, but the killing needs to stop.
